Storia
Christian, an art curator known for his commitment to social causes, becomes involved in embarrassing situations after his phone is stolen. His attempt at altruism through 'The Square', an installation aimed at promoting kindness and responsibility, ends up causing unexpected chaos due to a PR campaign gone awry. This leads Christian into an existential crisis.
Riassunto
'Square' (2017), directed by Ruben Östlund, explores themes of hypocrisy, societal expectations, and the consequences of one's actions. The film follows Christian, a seemingly progressive art curator who finds himself struggling to live up to his own ideals after attempting to retrieve his stolen phone. The movie's title refers to 'The Square', an installation Christian oversees which encourages passersby to be responsible citizens. However, the film delves into the complexities of human nature and how even the best-intended acts can lead to unintended consequences.
